Portable Death Stranding PS5 case... cause why not
Dont hate on the woodgrain PS5 controller.
Largest gathering of Orcas, filmed in Norway
Rescued a lorikeet, and apparently the reward was getting introduced to the whole family.
Ask about friends?
Hi, am I allowed to ask if anyone wants to be friends who is actively playing DS2 right now?
Most of my connections and strand contracts are people who haven't logged on in a long time.
I just started replaying for the platinum, so I've been gone too, but I'm only getting a few new connection suggestions from people who are actively playing.
So I am getting new suggestions for active players, just not very many.
Is it against the rules to put my playstation ID up so people can friend me if they want to?
I'm sorry in advance if it is! Thanks for reading.
Fast travel question
I'm making preparations to finish sub order 124, and trying to figure out ways to cut down time since I failed it on my first attempt. One thing I was wondering is about fast travel. I know that using the DHV Magellan and beach jumps to deliver cargo will affect your rating. But is this only the case when you have the cargo already in possession? What I'm wondering here for this order specifically is whether or not I can still get S rank if I only use fast travel to get to the first base, and then proceed like normal from there. I've never used fast travel during any orders before so I'm not sure how this works. I don't want to do it if it affects the rating, but if I could just fast travel to the base near F7 at the start of the mission, I feel like I could complete the order without any issues. Thanks!
I am stuck at 4.5 stars at southern environmental observatory and orders not getting repeated this is only one thing left to achieve platinum 😭
Can someone explain this concept of strand contracts to me? And what does it do ?
When do i unlock this “log in” in the options? And what does it do?
So i completed the 1st part of Australia, the government, the lone commander , observatory currently doing the the f1 terminal, the musician etc. and this log in option still hasn’t unlocked. Am i missing something here? Does this game have a additional online multiplayer that im not aware of? Or does this require ps plus which i dont currently have
Trekking on peak mountain first time.
Still going through my first playthrough. Stunning shots as try setup ziplines.
I think I got the perfect transportation mean
I was at east fort knot and I got one lost cargo for the mechanic. I felt defeated thinking about how much distance to cover for that damn thing to be delivered.
The I realized that the coffin trivializes a whole bunch of game sections by just floating above water and the best thing is that it work better and faster on it!
Maybe it is really the best way to carry stuff around at mid / late game! Thoughts?
I just finished the game
It was awesome but I'm sad now... It's been a while since I had this feeling.
The feeling of not wanting to play anything else since this game was so good.
It was also very sad, I cried a lot.
I have this feeling of emptiness, I know it will go away but damn this game was crazy fun.
THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT KOJIMA AND KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS
We all know that Kojima invites popular stars like Stefanie Joosten, Elle Fanning, Margaret Qualley, and Norman Reedus to his studio. And all of them, at least to some extent, have shown their heels in Kojima's games. And now everything has finally become crystal clear...
KOJIMA CREATED KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS SOLELY TO SCAN THE HEELS OF POPULAR STARS USING HUNDREDS OF CAMERAS IN 8K RESOLUTION!
Consequently, to ensure you never find yourself in such a vulnerable position, you must strictly follow the CYF (Cover Your Feet) protocol, which was established based on these findings and analysis:
- DO NOT ENTER A ROOM FILLED WITH MULTIPLE CAMERAS. The very moment you are requested to undergo a 3D scan for a game, make sure to state explicitly in your Digital Likeness Release contract that you refuse to expose your character in any way. Pay close attention to what this entails in the next rule.
- NEVER LOOK KOJIMA IN THE EYE. Kojima is the absolute god of his studio. If he takes too much of a liking to you, HE WILL CALL THE GUARDS AND VIOLENTLY SCAN YOUR ENTIRE BODY! Even if you signed the protective contract mentioned above, he will hire 100 of the best lawyers in Japan to locate a loophole and get exactly what he wants! Especially during deep, heartfelt conversations: never show him photos from your beach vacations, avoid wearing open outfits that reveal your lower legs, and do not bring up the topic of feet at all.
- GOD FORBID YOU EVER WALK AROUND KOJIMA PRODUCTIONS IN SLIPPERS OR ANY OTHER OPEN-TOED SHOES!
- IF YOU HAVE ALREADY ACCIDENTALLY EXPOSED YOUR FEET or other body parts in the studio, and they have already made it into the game... your best bet is to go completely off the grid for a while. If Kojima decides to develop a new game... HE WILL TRACK YOU DOWN, AND ALL OF THESE SAFETY RULES WILL BECOME ABSOLUTELY USELESS!
- If you are strictly following all these rules, it would also be a great idea to appease Kojima by gifting him 3D figurines of cool characters, as well as showing appreciation for his legendary work. As our research shows, this significantly softens the severity of the previous rules, but still - do not cross the line. Because if you overdo it... all hell will break loose.
Thank you for reading. (These rules were written out of pure respect for Hideo Kojima and all the actors mentioned above).

Kojima in Rome
In Piazza San Cosimato with Gaspar Noé to present the horror film Jigoku. He’ll be here all weekend.
So I logged in on my birthday
Putting it under a spoiler just in case it counts?
I haven’t finished the game. I bought it late, and I’m taking my time. Today is my birthday. I logged in, then went to my room on the Magellan to refill my ammo. It started to go into a cut scene—not totally unusual. But I had no idea the crew would throw me a pizza party and sing me happy birthday! Honestly such a fun surprise, and one of the coolest things in a video game I’ve seen in a long time!
Microstuttering during some cutscenes and actions
Does anyone know what the cause of this could be? I've tried quite a bit of troubleshooting. Using DDU to complete remove and reinstall my drivers, changed a ton of settings both in game and NVIDIA app, but still get these microstutters. This was the most clear example I could show, where Pekora temporarily freezes during her dialogue but the audio is still perfect. Is this normal? When I watch other POVs I don't see this happening but perhaps I'm blind. Maybe my system isn't strong enough to smoothly run this game?
I wrote an essay on the diegetic and therapeutic usi of the Photo Mode in Death Stranding 2 as interpretative key to the work.
If someone is interested I'd love to hear your feedback and ideas 😁.

Thank you everyone, keep on keeping on!
